hey everybody,
Alex and I flew to the North Island this afternoon. We're at a hostel in downtown Auckland, the largest city in the country.
On our date this evening, Alex and I chose to go to the Mexican restaurant in town, maybe we're a little homesick, or just ready for a something different. We realize that the South Pacific isn't necessarily known for it's Mexican cuisine, but we figured it would be fine. Turns out south pacific Mexican cooking uses a lot of soy sauce, yep, lots of soy sauce. It wasn't even Asian-Mexican fusion, just beef covered in a rich, thick, sweet soy sauce with flour tortillas on the side. It was a fine meal, just in no way Mexican.
We appreciate all the emails about the pig flu, thanks for all your concerns. We promise to wash our hands and not touch anyone.
We're heading out of town tomorrow, without a plan as of yet. We're considering WWOOFing (willing workers on organic farms) for a couple weeks. We've been reading a book about gardening, and it's sort of inspired us to want to meet folks living the sustainable farm dream.
We're doing well and have no flu-like symptoms.
